Trump Threatens 100% Tariff on French Wine and Champagne, Macron Resists
Hours before taking off for France to attend a summit with other world leaders, United States President Donald Trump threatened a 100 percent tariff on French wine and Champagne. The levy would come in retaliation for the French government’s 3 percent tax on services from American tech companies. Trump announced the ultimatum today in an interview with the New York Post. Unless French President Emmanuel Macron ditches the sales tax on American tech, Trump claims he would have “no choice” but to impose the 100 percent tariff on all French Champagne and wine.

The ‘C’ Word
It was nearly harvest time and I was standing in a Grenache vineyard in Southern Catalunya. Or at least, I thought it was Grenache as there were two rows of vines that didn’t look terribly Grenache-y. The owner was busy talking to a delivery driver and so I helped myself to taste a grape. The electric shock of acidity that hit my tongue was more potent than even the most feral of natural wines I’ve had the displeasure of encountering. As I was trying to rebalance the pH in my […] For full access, please log in or purchase a subscription.

The 20 Most Popular Scotch Brands in the World for 2026
While Scotch whisky sales surged in 2021 and 2022, the industry has since taken consistent hits. Last year, global Scotch whisky exports slid by 4.3 percent in volume, according to The Spirits Business’ annual Brand Champions Report. The report, which ranks the world’s 20 top-selling Scotch brands by 9-liter case sales, found 13 of the biggest brands were down year-over-year. The Spirits Business attributes the sagging sales to the tug-of-war over tariffs, mounting operational costs in the U.K., and wilting demand for Scotch in general, but the outlook isn’t entirely grim.

videoCan This £36 English Sparkling Beat Champagne? (Episode 602)
Can a £36 English sparkling wine really compete with Champagne costing £60 or more? In this episode, we taste the Ambriel “Wendling” Blanc de Blancs 2018, a traditional-method sparkling wine made from 100% Chardonnay in West Sussex. We first visited Ambriel nearly ten years ago, so expectations were high—but this bottle still managed to surprise us. We explore its fine bubbles, buttered-brioche and honey aromas, lively acidity, apple-skin finish and impressive length. We also suggest food pairings and decide whether it justifies its £36 price—or offers better value than a similarly priced Champagne. The scores produce one of our biggest disagreements for some time: 82 versus 90 points. Which John got it right? Have you tried Ambriel or another English sparkling wine that can rival Champagne? Let us know in the comments. Wine tasted: Ambriel “Wendling” Blanc de Blancs 2018 Region: West Sussex, England Grape: 100% Chardonnay Price when purchased: £36 Prices and availability may cha
